Coolum

A laid-back seaside vibe is what Coolum offers, along with patrolled surf beaches all year round. The area is in constant view of Mount Coolum, a grand volcanic dome that presides over the landscape – beckoning you to conquer it.

The rocky headlands of Point Perry and Point Arkwright are in stark contrast to the wide-open beaches and provide the perfect viewing platforms.
